Neighborhood Watch
Hello Danawoods Neighbors!
Danawoods has been a popular hangout for teens this summer. But not just for residents, and not just at the pool or parks. Residents have complained to law enforcement about spontaneous partying in and around cars all over Danawoods in the evening hours. Sheriff’s deputies were called at least once in recent weeks to disband the revelers on Danawoods Drive. There was also a recent graffiti incident on a wall near Danapine.
It’s time to be more organized and diligent about the safety of our neighborhood, and in pursuit of this goal, I have scheduled with the Sheriff’s office a Neighborhood Watch Meeting on Sept 21st from 7-8:30pm.
A representative from the Sheriffs Dept. as well as the City of Dana Point will be here to meet with us. There will be a short presentation, followed by a question and answer period.
We will need one or two residents/captains from each street. Call me at (949) 240-5892 for details and location of the meeting. Thanks for your RSVP before Friday the 18th.

It all begins at home!”
